Diana Whitney of the San Francisco Chronicle included Alison Prine’s new book, Steel, in her latest review.  Steel was covered in company with Allen Ginsberg and Catherine Bowman.

Whitney writes:

Alison Prine’s brilliant debut, Steel (Cider Press Review; $17.95), takes us on a journey through trauma, grief and love. How can we survive after inconceivable loss? asks Prine, transposing a brother’s suicide and a mother’s early death by car crash into poems both precise and musical. “I was there when your heart stopped beating,” she says in “Rearview Mirror: January,” and grief becomes an icy road, a perilous winter landscape the child must travel alone.
